Some things haven’t changed

Marketplace

About this episode

A series of policy changes are hitting the economy, but some aspects of consumer behavior have yet to demonstrate change. A Federal Reserve survey shows Americans still gauge future inflation at 3%. And we continue to spend 40% of our food budget on eating out and 60% on meals at home. Also in this episode, insurance and property taxes contribute to the housing affordability crisis, steel and aluminum are tariffed together but serve different markets, and only some states require vehicle safety inspections.
